An access control circuit for accessing and an ECC circuit provided in a data path between the access control circuit and the plurality of cell blocks are provided, and data input / output from the access control circuit is The ECC circuit converts the converted data into predetermined bits (so-called code) and stores the converted data in the plurality of cell blocks. Accordingly, when the access control circuit performs the access operation to the plurality of cell blocks, even if the specific cell block is refreshed and the access operation to the cell block being refreshed cannot be performed ( That is, even if correct data (code) cannot be read / written with respect to the cell block being refreshed), the ECC circuit can reproduce the data on the side of the access control circuit into correct data, which is viewed from the outside. At that time, without being affected by the refresh,
It becomes possible to perform a predetermined access operation.
The present invention relates to a semiconductor memory device, and more particularly to a dynamic memory having a normal access control circuit and a refresh control path.
FIG. 3 exemplifies a semiconductor memory device (dynamic RAM) of this type in the prior art, which includes eight cell blocks 10 'to 17', each cell block having a predetermined memory cell array, word decoder, A column decoder, etc. are provided. Reference numeral 2'denotes a refresh control circuit. The block address and the row address signal output from the refresh control circuit 2'indicate a predetermined cell block and a row address in the cell block (to a predetermined word line). (Corresponding) is sequentially selected, and the memory cells corresponding to each word line of the plurality of cell blocks are sequentially refreshed. On the other hand, 3'is a normal access control circuit, which is designated by the address signal according to an address signal (consisting of a block address, a row address and a column address) externally input to the access control street 3 '. A predetermined memory cell (corresponding to a row address and a column address specified at that time) in a predetermined cell block (corresponding to a block address specified at that time) is selected, and the selected memory cell is selected. Then, predetermined data is written from the outside or predetermined data is read from the selected memory cell to the outside. The refresh control circuit 2'and the access control circuit 3'also supply a drive clock for driving each circuit element (for example, a decoder) provided therein to each cell block. There is.
Reference numeral 4'denotes a comparison circuit, which compares the block address output from the refresh control circuit 2'with the block address output from the access control circuit 3 '. Then, when the refresh control circuit 2'selects a predetermined cell block (for example, 10 ') (that is, when the memory cells in the cell block 10' are being refreshed), the access control circuit 3 ' When the comparison circuit 4'detects that the same cell block (that is, 10 ') is selected (detected by matching the block addresses output from the control circuits 2'and 3'), the comparison circuit 4 ' The operation of the access control circuit 3'is temporarily stopped by the output from '.
On the other hand, when the access control circuit 3'selects a predetermined cell block and the comparison circuit 4'detects that the refresh control circuit 2'selects the same cell block, the comparison is performed. The output of the circuit 4'temporarily suspends the operation of the refresh control circuit 2 ', so that the refresh for the cell block is carried over to the next time.
As described above, in the conventional semiconductor memory device as shown in FIG. 3, while a specific cell block is being refreshed, the cell block being refreshed is externally accessed (that is, the cell block being refreshed is accessed). The data of the cell block cannot be read / written). In such a case, the operation of the access control circuit 3'is temporarily interrupted, and the external circuit connected to the semiconductor memory device is interrupted. There was a serious problem that the operation had to be interrupted once and the function was interrupted.
The present invention has been made to solve such a problem. Even if the access operation to the cell block being refreshed cannot be performed, the correct data is transmitted through the access control circuit regardless of the fact. It is capable of reading and writing, and enables a predetermined access operation (an operation as a so-called pseudo-static memory) without being affected by the refresh when viewed from the outside even though it is a dynamic memory.
In order to solve such a problem, according to the present invention, a plurality of cell blocks, a refresh control circuit for sequentially refreshing the plurality of cell blocks, and an access circuit for accessing the plurality of cell blocks are provided. A control circuit and an ECC circuit provided in a data path between the access control circuit and the plurality of cell blocks, and data input / output from the access control circuit is predetermined by the ECC circuit. A semiconductor memory device is provided, which is converted into bit conversion data and stored in the plurality of cell blocks, and a word line to be refreshed and a word line to be accessed are independently selected.
According to the above configuration, even if the conversion data stored in the plurality of cell blocks does not include data corresponding to the cell block being refreshed, the ECC circuit causes the access control circuit side The data can be reproduced as correct data.
In this case, as an example, when 8-bit data is stored in the semiconductor memory device, the 8-bit data is converted into 12-bit data (code) by the ECC circuit, and each cell block (that is, 12-bit data) is converted. Even if one bit of the 12 bits (corresponding to the cell block being refreshed) is lost by storing the data in the access control circuit side (8 bits). Data) can be reproduced as correct data.
The 8-bit data is set to 1 by the ECC circuit.
By converting the data into 5-bit data (code) and storing the data in each cell block (that is, 15 cell blocks), even if two bits out of the 15 bits are lost, the ECC circuit is lost for a reason described later. Thus, the data (8-bit data) on the side of the access control circuit can be reproduced as correct data.
FIG. 1 shows the configuration of a semiconductor memory device as one embodiment of the present invention. In the device shown in FIG.
Input / output from the outside via the access control circuit 3 8
Twelve cell blocks 100 to 111 are provided to store bit data, and each cell block is provided with a predetermined memory cell array, word decoder, column decoder, and the like. Reference numeral 2 denotes a refresh control circuit, which sequentially selects a predetermined cell block and a row address in the cell block by a block address and a row address signal output from the refresh control circuit 2, The memory cells corresponding to each word line of the cell block are sequentially refreshed. On the other hand, 3 is a normal access control circuit, which is based on an address signal (consisting of a row address and a column address signal) input to the access control circuit 3 from the outside. Predetermined memory cells (corresponding to the row address and the column address specified at that time) in each cell block 100 to 111 are simultaneously selected, and E is selected for each selected memory cell as described later.
Predetermined data is written in parallel via the CC circuit 5, or predetermined data is read out in parallel from the selected memory via the ECC circuit 5. Also in the circuit shown in FIG. 1, the refresh control circuit 2 and the access control circuit 3 drive respective circuit elements (for example, a decoder) provided therein for each cell block. A drive clock for 5
Is an ECC circuit which will be described in detail later. 6 holds 8-bit data output from the ECC circuit 5 and inputs / outputs predetermined 1-bit data to / from the access control circuit 1 /
8 decoder.
Reference numerals 400 to 411 are selection circuits provided corresponding to the plurality of cell blocks 100 to 111, respectively, and the selection circuits cause the row address from the refresh control circuit 2 and the access control circuit 3 to The row address and the incoming row address are selectively supplied to the row decoder in the corresponding cell block. That is, when the refresh control circuit 2 selects a predetermined cell block (for example, 100) (that is, when the cell block 100 is being refreshed), the row address received from the refresh control circuit 2 is the cell. The memory cell corresponding to the row address supplied to the row decoder in the block 100 is refreshed, and during such a refresh period, the access control circuit 3 thereafter performs an access operation to the cell block 100. Is prohibited. On the other hand, when the access control circuit 3 is performing an access operation to each cell block, thereafter, the refresh control circuit 2 is prohibited from performing a refresh operation to a specific cell block.
Therefore, if no cell block is refreshed, the normal access control circuit 3
When a read operation from a specific memory cell in each of the cell blocks 100 to 111 is performed, 12-bit data is read in parallel and input to the ECC circuit 5. When a read operation from a specific memory cell in each of the cell blocks 100 to 111 is performed by the normal access control circuit 3 while (for example, 100) is being refreshed, the cell block 100 being refreshed is refreshed. On the other hand, the access operation is prohibited, the data is not read from the cell block 100, and the 11-bit read data in which the read data from the cell block 100 is missing is parallel to the ECC circuit 5
Entered in.
Here, the ECC circuit 5 corrects the error even if any bit of the 12-bit data (code) to be read from the cell block 100 to 111 side is missing (but only one). And has a function of reproducing 8-bit correct data (an ECC circuit having such a function is well known), and as a result, even if one cell block is being refreshed, as described above. , 11-bit data (code) with 1 bit missing
Can be converted into correct 8-bit data and the 8-bit data can be output to the 1/8 decoder 6 side. Then, by transmitting a predetermined block address signal from the access control circuit 3 to the 1/8 decoder 6, 1-bit data corresponding to the desired block address is selected and read out to the outside.
On the other hand, when a predetermined write data corresponding to a predetermined block address in the semiconductor memory device is input from an external circuit, a predetermined block address signal is sent from the access control circuit 3 to the 1/8 decoder 6. At the same time as sending, the write data is output, and the data corresponding to the predetermined block address among the 8-bit data held in the 1/8 decoder 6 is rewritten, and thus the newly rewritten 8 Bit data is the ECC
It is converted into 12-bit data (code) by the circuit 5 and written in each corresponding memory cell (corresponding to a predetermined row address and column address) in each cell block 100 to 111.
In the ECC circuit 5, 12-bit data read from each of the cell blocks 100 to 111 as described above (when any cell block is refreshed, data corresponding to the cell block is lost 11 Even immediately after reproducing (bit data) into 8-bit data, the 8-bit data is inversely converted into 12-bit data (code), and the inversely-converted 12-bit data is generated in each cell block 100. To 111 corresponding memory cells are operated to be written back.
By the way, the 8-bit data input from the external circuit as described above is converted into 12-bit data (code) in the ECC circuit 5 and written in each corresponding memory cell in the 12 cell blocks. However, in this case, if a specific cell block (for example, 100) is being refreshed, the cell block 100 cannot be accessed, and the memory cell in the cell block 100 has a predetermined data (code). ) Is not written, and predetermined data (code) is written only to the remaining cell blocks 100 to 111. Then, when data is read from each of the predetermined memory cells in the plurality of cell blocks 100 to 111, the cell block that was being refreshed at the time of writing (that is, 10
0) and another cell block (for example, 101) is being refreshed, the cell block 101
Can not be assessed against the cell block 10
Data will not be read from 1. In such a case, as described above, since the predetermined data has not been written in the cell block 100 at the time of immediately before writing, the read data from the cell blocks 100 and 101 is eventually lost at the time of reading (that is, The data (code) in which the 2-bit data is missing will be input to the ECC circuit 5.
In order to deal with such a situation, in another embodiment of the present invention, the ECC circuit 5 is an ECC circuit capable of 2-bit correction (of the predetermined bit data (code), 2
An ECC circuit is used that can reproduce any bit data within the range up to the bit to correct data of a predetermined bit. In addition, as in the above-mentioned example, assuming that the data input / output from the outside via the access control circuit 3 is 8 bits, the ECC circuit 5 is
The circuit configuration is such that bit data is converted into 15-bit data (code), and the number of the cell blocks is 15 accordingly. By doing so, even if any 2 bits of the 15 data (codes) are lost at the time of the reading due to the above-mentioned reason, this can be reproduced as the correct data of 8 bits.
FIG. 2 shows the selection circuit shown in FIG.
2) schematically shows the configuration of 0), and is shown in FIG. 2 when the cell block 100 is selected by the block address (block selection signal SR) output from the refresh control circuit 2. The block selection signal SR becomes high level, and therefore the transistors Q 02 to Q n are transmitted via the transistors Q 01 to Q n1 which are always on.
n2 is turned on, and the row address signals RA 0 to RA n supplied from the refresh control circuit 2 remain as the signal A.
0 to become the A n are input to the row decoder provided in the cell block 100, a memory cell corresponding to a predetermined word line is refreshed. When the block selection signal SR becomes high level in this way, a high level access operation block selection signal SA supplied from the access control circuit 3 to the selection circuit of each cell block.
Are prohibited from being input to the transistors Q 04 to Q n4 of the selection circuit 400.
On the other hand, when the high level block selection signal SA is supplied from the access control circuit 3 to the selection circuit 400 when the cell block 100 is not refreshed,
The transistors Q 03 to Q n3 are turned on via the transistors Q 04 to Q n4 which are always on, and the row address signals AA 0 to AA supplied from the access control circuit 3 are supplied.
n becomes the signals A 0 to A n as they are and the cell block
The column address signal (not shown) supplied from the row decoder provided in the cell block 100 and further supplied from the access control circuit 3 is also inputted into the column decoder provided in the cell block 100, so that a predetermined value can be obtained. The access operation (data read / write) is performed on the memory cell corresponding to the address of.
According to the present invention, even if the access operation to the cell block being refreshed cannot be performed, correct data can be read and written via the access control circuit regardless of the fact that it is a dynamic memory. As seen from the outside, the predetermined access operation can be immediately performed without the influence of the refresh.
